- Occurrence:
- Usually associated with iron ores in submarginal concentration. Important ores of manganese are pyrolusite, manganite, psilomelane, rhodochrosite. An important source of manganese is open-hearth slags. Ores occur chiefly in Brazil, India, South Africa, Gabon, Ghana, Zaire, Montana; 90% of U.S. consumption is imported. So-called nodules rich in manganese and containing also cobalt, nickel, and copper have been found in huge quantities (estimated at 1.5 trillion tons) on the floor of the Pacific south of Hawaii. Such nodules have been located in other areas such as in Lake Michigan.

Uses of Manganese: it is a metal with important industrial metal alloy uses, particularly in stainless steels. Manganese(II) ions function as cofactors for a number of enzymes in higher organisms, where they are essential in detoxification of superoxide free radicals. The element is a required trace mineral for all known living organisms. In larger amounts, and apparently with far greater activity by inhalation, manganese can cause a poisoning syndrome in mammals, with neurological damage which is sometimes irreversible.
When you are using this chemical, please be cautious about it as the following:
It is highly flammable and toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed. Please take off immediately all contaminated clothing. It contacts with water liberates extremely flammable gases and can cause burns. In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. Besides, this chemical is irritating to to eyes and skin. When you are using it, wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection. In case of accident or if you feel unwell seek medical advice immediately (show the label where possible).
